You know what the best way to end the week is? Congratulating someone on a win – and it’s even better when that person is an ex-Daemon Group staff member!

Madeleine Stevens (Daemonite from 2004-2008 and regular freelancer since) has taken the top honours in the Getty Images’ Flickr competition for 2010! Here’s the photos that helped her secure victory:

Maddie’s photo was selected from more than 2,400 photographs capturing the essence of Australian life as part of the “GRAB Australian life captured” competition. Rather than us telling her story though, check out this interview with Maddie about the competition below:

Finally, you should see an add below for the latest issue of Daemon’s mag, Think02, which not only includes a great article on the Getty Flickr partnership but the whole edition was put together using only images acquired as part of it! It’s a great read so if you haven’t got your copy yet, just drop us an email and we’ll send you one for free today.

Have a great weekend everybody, and once again, congratulations Maddie!
